A Case of Prostatic Aspergillosis / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Aspergillosis is an infection produced by Aspergillus, a group of fungi, of low pathogenesity for human beings unless resistance is overcome by an overwhelming inoculum or debilitating illness. The disease may become disseminated or remain localized to the lung, ear, orbit or paranasal sinuses, but rare in prostate. We present a case in which this disease process involved the prostate.
